Working of Language Translators


                 The programs written in a high-level language must be translated into machine language by
                 using a translator called compiler or interpreter.


                                    3 × 2 = 6                                Machine Code (0110)

                 •  Algorithm is a set of steps in a sequential manner to solve a problem or to complete a
                   task.

                 •  Flowchart is a graphical representation of the sequence of operations in an information               123
                   system or program.

                 •  A computer language is the medium by which instructions are transmitted to the computer
                   to perform a specific task.

                 •  A language translator is a software that converts a high-level language program into a
                   machine language.
